The Big Bang Theory's take on the Miller's Tale

[@gunsnroseschild1404]

Hahahaha, reading The Millers Tale in English Lit and as a class we had a collective moment of 'this seems really familiar...'

[@zoefang4563]

Miller's Tale is HYSTERICAL

[@memesredacted]

@@zoefang4563 the wife of bath's tale is pretty...odd

[@suburbantimewaster9620]

Yeah, I had to read it in World Literature. I ended up writing an essay about it where I compared the story to an episode of Rick and Morty.

[@christopherfigueroa3083]

And Absolon hath kist hir nether ye; And Nicholas is scalded in the towte. This tale is doon, and God save al the rowte!

[@firebird2370]

The best part is that the Miller’s tale is like a 30 minute story at the speed Amy’s telling it

[@HorrorWarehouse]

Lol her face after she tells the story

[@MS-sj7zx]

It's priceless!

[@alicesullivan001]

Amy is hilarious her facial expressions are the cutest 🤣🤣

[@rviolinfiddle55]

I heard her story, and immediately said "is that CHAUCER??" I recognized the middle-english which is known for it's after-e infections.

[@Mystrohan]

I watched this episode live, and I was the only one who got this joke before Amy explained it.

[@timothyfloogle]

Found the literate!

[@phillipdonkin4181]

I love the way Penny says "What the hell was that" hysterical!

[@Chris-hp9be]

I actually find the Millers tale interesting. It reveals the mentality of medieval Europe and the humor they enjoy

[@frankmiranda707]

I actually looked up "Nether Yeyah" makes so much sense

[@tommyt1971]

Amy gets up, marches straight into the bedroom... makes netheryaya history.

[@zoefang4563]

CHAUCER!!!!!!!!!

[@davidwelsh6655]

I'm sorry... I just looked this clip up because I find Penny's scream at 1:15-1:18 so hilarious!!!!!!!

[@Jakegothicsnake]

Don't worry, I'll avoid the nether ye.

[@HugeZapata]

And Absolon hath kist hir nether ye; 745 And Nicholas is scalded in the towte. This tale is doon, and God save al the rowte!

[@farmgal77]

haha i love her walk :-)

[@esprit15d]

Even though Amy was being whack-a-doodle part 2 in this clip, i could see she sincerely amused the girls.

[@davidganderson870]

I miss robotic Amy.

[@treyenriquez5316]

I keep forgetting what that’s supposed to mean.

[@DarkWolf-407]

I'm about to read this today.

[@MS-sj7zx]

"Nether yë" hahahaha!!!! Spicy indeed!

[@ThatAnnoyingINTJKid]

@rossyxan in Chaucer's language it's actually spelled "nether yë" the more you know! (do do doo)

[@Misting-hu8qm]

and ye actually means eye so he was kissing her in the 'lower eye' which, as is clarified earlier in the text, is her asshole

[@aksshat98960]

What the hell was that !!

[@MaureenMaynes]

Chaucer and she did well - it is just before the Vowel switch - it is old English and difficult to pronounce.

[@xohellokitty93]

Maureen Maynes It's actually Middle English, but I'm otherwise impressed that someone else on the internet knows this.

[@zoefang4563]

Chaucer, my dear. The father of English literature and one of my favorite poets of all time

[@ehteshem]

Thus swyved was this carpenteris wyf, For al his kepyng and his jalousye; And Absolon hath kist hir nether ye; And Nicholas is scalded in the towte. This tale is doon, and God save al the rowte! (The Miller’s Tale, 3850-3854)

[@princeicio]

I don't care about hygiene, I'll kiss it LOL

[@timothyfloogle]

Congratulations on being gross

[@Mystrohan]

No one will kink shame you here.

[@stanislausklim7794]

The Miller's Tale actually is pretty gross.

[@Quinntus79]

Wouldn’t the Reeve’s Tale have been dirtier?

[@fr.paulwheeler1112]

I would have thought that Chaucer would just call it an ‘aers’ or is he talking about something even ruder?

[@graememontrose1741]

Calling someone's butthole a 'third eye' is a classic example of medieval vulgarism, from what I heard.

[@timothyfloogle]

Thought it meant vagina
